Rationale forChanges orExceptions:

THIS COURSE IS BEING OFFERED IN RESPONSE TO A PERCEIVED
NEED FOR ESL INSTRUCTION AT UMM, MADE ALL THE MORE URGENT BY A SUBSTANTIAL
INCREASE IN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT ENROLLMENT OVER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME
DURING THE SUMMER.

THIS COURSE IS INTENDED TO SUPPORT INTERNATIONAL OR NON-NATIVE ENGLISH
SPEAKING STUDENTS WHO ARE NEW TO AMERICAN RHETORICAL STYLES AND REQUIREMENTS
OF THE AMERICAN UNIVERSITY CLASSROOMS.

INSTRUCTOR'S RESUME IS AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW.

COURSE DOES NOT FIT THE CRITERIA FOR EXPANDING PERSPECTIVES. THEREFORE A GER
HAS NOT BEEN DESIGNATED.
